Market Growth Factors
Foreign direct investment from foreign technology firms like Samsung, Intel, and Foxconn mainly drives the semiconductor manufacturing industry in Vietnam. In 2024, $26 billion of FDI went to the manufacturing sector, and 67% was foreign-made. This pattern fuels the country's semiconductor and electronics industries. Government supports the sector through the National Strategy on Science, Technology, and Innovation 2030, grants tax breaks, provides subsidies, and develops infrastructure projects because these actions encourage investment and improve local capabilities.
Adopting advanced technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and 5G networks propels market growth forward. Disposable income rises along with domestic consumption that grows to demand more consumer electronics like smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and smart home devices. The Vietnamese printed electronics market is expected to grow at a compound growth rate (CAGR) of 7.80% within the years 2024 and 2032.
Another source of growth has been automotive and industrial. In 2024, the automotive sector manufactured nearly 388,500 units with a 27% growth beyond 2023, which increased the demand for semiconductor products like infotainment, navigation, driver assistance systems and electric vehicle technology. Industries use industrial automation, industrial robots, and smart manufacturing solutions through modernization programs like Industry 4.0 which causes semiconductor demand for control, precision, and connectivity. For example, US chipmaker Nvidia has expressed an interest toward developing manufacturing plants in Vietnam.
